Adam Jones asked another question.
Seeing Lily Bankston give a bitter laugh, she said, "It's not dead, it's gone. I had a miscarriage."
For a moment, Adam Jones didn't know what to say.
Lily, it seemed, didn't need him to respond, as she went on,
"If that child were still alive, it would probably be around your age. So, when I look at you, I think of my own child."
Her gaze was somewhat vacant, and her voice, tinged with the chill of heartbreak.
She looked at Adam Jones and continued,
"My feelings for you are conflicted. You stole the fatherly love that should have belonged to my child. My child was lost because of you."
Back then, when Henry Jones proposed breaking up, he told her that Thompson Shuyi was pregnant with his child and that he had to take responsibility for her.
No matter how much she lowered her pride to hold onto him, it was to no avail. He still resolutely married Thompson Shuyi.
